Knowledge Media

Knowledge Media refers to the convergence of information and communication technologies (eg. internet, multimedia, mobiles), with specific application to the challenges of learning and sensemaking (academic and workplace).

The role of Knowledge Media in the work of the Learning Emergence network is specifically tuned to understanding their intersection with deep learning and professional development, for instance:

enabling the more effective development of learning-to-learn skills and dispositions

scaffolding authentic enquiry

mediating and capturing mentoring for learning

augmenting personal and especially collective sensemaking

modelling and visualizing social and conceptual networks in complex systems
